OVERVIEW
T Cell Profiling

Discover the power within a single T cell - the key to groundbreaking personalized therapeutics. Our Opto® T Cell Profiling workflow accelerates this journey by swiftly conducting functional assays across thousands of T cells. With precision sorting and comprehensive profiling, explore single-cell polyfunctionality, cytotoxicity, genotype, and gene expression. Our multiplexed cytokine and cytotoxicity assays unveil diverse mechanisms in cytokine secretion and tumor destruction. Recover cells of interest for further study, connecting their behavior to genotype and gene expression.

Technology
Maximize Functional Characterization of Your Precious T Cell Samples

The Opto® T Cell Profiling workflow accelerates the creation of better therapeutics by performing multiple functional assays across thousands of individual T cells in a matter of days. Deeply characterize, profile, and map your T cell populations at the single-cell level to directly link phenotype to gene expression.​

THE IMPORTANCE OF A SINGLE T CELL
One T cell could be the key to the next powerful therapeutic.

To realize its potential, you need to deeply characterize it. The Opto T Cell Profiling workflow lets you directly link single-cell phenotype and function to gene expression. It only takes one cell to create a powerful therapy. We’ll help you find it.

SORT, SELECT AND LOAD CELLS
Allowing desired phenotypes to be selected from heterogeneous T cells samples

Specific cells are targeted based on size, viability and cell surface markers. This gentle sorting process does not require repeated media exchange, which can reduce sorter induced cell stress.

COMPREHENSIVE PROFILING
Characterize polyfunctionality, cytotoxicity, genotype, and gene expression

The Opto T Cell Profiling workflow makes it possible to comprehensively profile single T cells and link this phenotypic and functional data to the genotype of those same cells.

MEASURE MULTIPLE CYTOKINES
Our Multiplex Cytokine Assay allows simultaneous functional interrogation of T cells as they interact with target cells, giving you insight into the heterogenous mechanisms that regulate cytokine secretion.

Cytokine assays and cell surface markers can be customized.

VISUALIZE TUMOR CELL KILLING
Our Cytotoxicity Assay leverages caspase-3 activation in target cells to visualize the disparate killing behaviors in your T cell samples

Now, you can develop therapeutics to mediate more effective tumor destruction by the few T cells that matter.

RECOVER CELLS OF INTEREST
After functional characterization, cells of interest can be exported for expansion or for further study to link their behavior to genotype.​
Link Function to Genotype

The TCRseq Well Plate kit allows you to recover your selected cells from fewer than 10,000 cells, amplify TCR alpha and beta chains, and sequence only the T cells that are potential therapeutics.
